App Threat Report: The State of iOS App Security

Welcome to our Q1 2024 App Threat Report, Promon’s quarterly analysis of current topics in mobile application security produced by our Security Research Team.

In this report, our team examines iOS app security, specifically if iOS apps can defend against repackaging, which means that an attacker obtains a copy of an app, modifies it and then repackages it into a new version of the app with modified behavior that will successfully run on a device.

We looked at how 100 of the world’s most downloaded iOS apps performed against this attack.
